| book description |

The Geography of the Port of London (1957) deals with the mid-century functions of the port studied in relation to their physical setting and in the light of their historical development. An analysis of the roles of the various dock and wharf systems is followed by a discussion of the present commerce of the port, illustrated by post-war statistics. The multiple background to this activity is also presented, including a discussion of the 1950s physical condition of the River Thames and of the markets and industries associated with the port. It presents a comprehensive picture of this at-the-time greatest British seaport, considered with reference to certain principles of economic geography.
